Feedback for Friday, Oct. 14.

Today and Saturday, Feedback will turn to social media for a wider variety of views on the stories we publish every day. Some of what readers were talking about on our Facebook page this week:

An offshore wind turbine test center is planned for the Eastern Shore. A good idea or an eyesore?

Kandace Weymouth Henderson: "Actually having seen this in other parts of the country, I think it looks so cool! Plus it helps the environment. Seems like a win-win."

Cinda Browne: "I'm for alternative energy sources, but hoping that part of this test center is also monitoring the affect this has on wildlife. The Eastern Shore is a major migratory corridor for many birds, and I've seen reports of them being sucked into the turbines."

Meagan Rae Landrum: "There will be pros and cons to everything man-made. The migratory bird issue is not a mild one, and while I hope that significant efforts will be made to ensure their safety, I think this will be another case where we must choose the lesser of two evils."

Hank Williams Jr., dropped by ESPN in the aftermath of an interview on Fox News in which he compared President Barack Obama to Adolph Hitler; his new song blasts both organizations. What do you think of the lyrics?

Doug Roberson: "I can't believe he actually wrote a new song. Who knew he knew how?"

Russ Treacy: "It may not have been the most PC of comparatives, but it was his opinion. The "fair and balanced" people on FOX NEWS asked his opinion and then had the audacity to disavow it, knowing full & well that Hank does not care for this administration? AND then ESPN pulled his song ... So much for Freedom of Speech."

Stephen Nobles: "Russ, I am a big Hank fan but don't count on ESPN losing viewers because of dismissing Hank. The Monday night theme song has done more for Hank than it has for ESPN."

Jon Adams: "Hank Jr. has just as much freedom of speech as any of us. That is all he needs."

A group of people have been camped around Wall Street in New York City, protesting greed, banking practices, the income gap and a number of other issues. And the protests have spread to other cities, including Norfolk and Richmond. What do you think of the "Occupy Wall Street" protests?

Results of our online poll at dailypress.com:

38% They express a deep and widening anger at the direction the country is taking.

22% They're a bunch of kids with too much free time.

13% I'm not altogether sure yet. I know what they're against, but I want to see what they're for.
